12 The Investor: key attributes A constant thirst for knowledge Can adapt and learn from mistakes made: come back stronger Out of the box thinking Patience and conviction Never believing your own press Listening Ability to understand what s not on the page, or what you're not being told Can respect and understand risk (also taking some risk, when appropriate) Finally, and most importantly, recognises that the team is mightier than the individual There is no one degree or background that is the perfect fit. Successful investors come from a wide range of disciplines 11

16 Advice and perspectives to graduates Never too early to start thinking about career. Don t take the ostrich approach Use your Careers service Consider everything and don't rule out setting up your own business: we are in a new dawn of entrepreneurship Always have a Plan B Apply for Internships and apply early Network Understand your competition it s global. So, bring something special to the table understand what makes you different, what makes you special Learn everything you can about this industry and who the players are Consider what you have done for the community and those less fortunate than you If you are set on one path be clear about your reasons. If not, be flexible and adaptive and recognise others may have a better understanding of your fit for a role Have a family friend or industry contact read your application forms and CVs. Embrace the use of a devils advocate Slowly develop an understanding of financial markets. Cramming for interviews never works! The world really is your oyster. Aspire to working and living in the areas of the world that that will drive global growth and capital formation 15
